COMPARATIVE-STUDY OF 4 ADAPTIVE FREQUENCY TRACKERS

We study and compare four algorithms for adaptive retrieval of slowly time-varying multiple cisoids in noise: the adaptive notch filter, the multiple frequency tracker, the adaptive estimation scheme, and the h yperstable adaptive line enhancer, The local behavior of the algorithm s in a neighborhood of their equilibrium state [assuming high signal-t o-noise ratio (SNR) and large data sample] for a two cisoid signal is treated in a similar way to the linear filter approximation technique used for a single-cisoid case. Validity of the results is confirmed by computer simulations.
